If you watched closely the drill movement (like at the rehersal) and noticed the way the hill inclined at an odd and uneven angle on a grass hill! he actually did 3 paces to the right to keep the flag square.
There are worse things a foot from the opening ceremony with a witch hunt on for the lads and girls who blagged it into the show after being on guard for 12 hours. This should not have occured because those higher up the food chain here bottled it, and the rumored empty seats that were numerous from eyewitness reports should have rightly gone those who put in a lot of hard graft on the security side to make the whole day work. Considering the gate shut at 2000hrs more effort should have been made to get a few in legally.
The second rumored witch hunt is for the naughty RAF who were seen drinking a pimms in public at the Heineken stand In uniform ! "This is against QRs you know" is all the Army can say.
